Lucy’s Thankful Feast Re-Released for Dogs

Christi Busch, founder of For the Love of Dutch dog food, is providing through the end of the year her Lucy’s Thankful Feast seasonal meal. The menu item, featuring turkey and many other fall flavors, was a fan favorite last year and a great way to treat prized pets in a healthy delicious holiday way. Charlotte-based For the Love of Dutch feeds, nourishes and nurtures pets with natural food. Their readyto-serve, handcrafted, small-batch meals are made with fresh, seasonal produce and sustainably sourced meat from local farms. All dog foods are available for delivery in Charlotte and the greater Charlotte region including Rock Hill, South Carolina.

“We make fresh foods that are gently cooked and packed with real nutrients, a truly healthy option for your dog any time of the year,” says Busch. “With everything that’s happened over the last 18 months, we are more grateful for our pets than ever before and Lucy’s Thankful Feast is a lovely way to celebrate our best friends. We love pets and we love caring for them with socially responsible practices.”

Healing Platform Offers New Online Course

Amber Pederson, DC, CFMP, Reiki Master and owner of the Healing Platform, will lead a new course entitled Healing from the Ground Up beginning October 24. The curriculum will help participants create a foundation to begin their healing journey and to live a simpler life in harmony with the rhythms of nature. The course will be provided online with access to two, live, group support calls.

“In this go-at-your-own-pace course, we will dive into all aspects of health: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual,” says Pederson. “It’s a course designed for people to feel empowered so they can take charge of their health and healing journey, for those that want to do the work and believe they have the ability to heal themselves.”

Utilizing the elements of nature, attendees will delve into separate techniques to bring balance back to the body like nutrition, lifestyle practices, herbal practices, balancing emotions, animal medicine and meditation.

The program is also particularly helpful for those that may feel overwhelmed with all of the options of healing modalities and want to improve all aspects of their health, but don’t know where to start.

Cost: $88. For more information or to register, call 704-755-4088, email info@HealingPlatform.com or visit www.HealingPlatform.com. See CRG, page 26.

Gray-Cunningham Presents Butterfly Kisses Podcasts

Amy Gray-Cunningham, Akashic Record Practitioner and podcaster, is presenting a new episode of Butterfly Kisses: A Journey of Spiritual Transformation at 9 a.m. on every other Sunday. The series—especially appealing for spiritual seekers, those that have questions, are on journeys of self-discovery and exploring the meaning of spiritual transformation— attempts to uncover the mysteries behind the afterlife, angels, spirits, meditation, religion and much more.

“Do you struggle with the meaning of life? Have you ever wondered if there is more out there than you are currently experiencing? If so, then the Butterfly Kisses Podcast is for you,” says GrayCunningham.

It’s “a platform to share unique experiences with spirituality,” she adds. “I grew up with many questions that I was too afraid to ask, and now as an Akashic Record practitioner, I view spirituality differently. My beliefs have ‘transformed’ over time, but I’m open to learning and understanding more. It’s a continual process of growth and being open to new ideas.”

The series is a combination of solo shows and podcast guests. Also, she’ll occasionally release bonus episodes as captivating new topics arise. The show is available to listen to for free in any app that supports podcasts.
